Advent 2021
Join Our Village
The restrictions placed on us over the last few years have made it difficult to be together, and this year we are hoping to reunite our little community with some new and familiar faces. This year Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Southern Pines is “Creating Our Village,” one day at a time throughout the season of Advent.
December 23, Advent Day 26
Today we hear from Rev. Tally,
“We have followed the star for four weeks and we are almost there, almost at the cowshed with a tired young girl holding her just-born baby boy. There are cows in the stable, a couple of barn cats, and surely a tired old donkey that carried pregnant Mary six miles from Jerusalem to Bethlehem…”
View Past Advent Days
As we walk through each day of Advent at Emmanuel, you’ll meet local parishioners, hear their insights on the Word, meditate on Scripture, and reflect with them on what Advent means to all of us.
To participate, sign up for our newsletter to receive Advent reflections in your inbox daily. You can also view our Advent videos and materials by visiting this website, Facebook, or Instagram every day of Advent.
A Southern pines village
Guess what? You can build our Advent village at home! We created little replicas of our Church, the train station, and various buildings and businesses around Southern Pines for you to download, print, and assemble at home.
